AFL Update from IASBet
May 11, 2009 11:00 am AFL Aussie RulesThe Richmond Tigers have suffered a nightmare defeat at the hands of the Carlton Blues overnight after not only were they comprehensively thrashed, but their star recruit Ben Cousins broke down in the final quarter with a hamstring tear that could very well be season ending.

The astounding thing is that club medics spent the majority of the third quarter break massaging and assessing Cousin’s left hamstring.
While running the ball out of defence, Cousins took a bounce then dropped like a sack of spuds and hobbled from the field.
Despite taking just twelve seconds to gain his first touch in AFL football since he was suspended from the game in disgrace, the former Brownlow medallist managed just another ten touches and did little to trouble the Carlton.
Carlton’s pressure was evident early and a huge 52 point first quarter put them in a nearly unreachable position.
Every time the Tigers got a sniff, inaccurate kicking on their behalf coupled with some brilliance on the part of Judd, Fevola and Betts saw the Blues pile on the points in the third term and put the result well and truly beyond doubt.
Betts booted five goals while Judd snared a pair of brilliant goals to well and truly overshadow his former West Coast Eagles team mate. This should greatly improve your online bet on NRL and AFL with IASBet as moments like these don’t come around often.
The Blues looked ominous and the combination of Judd and Fevola, who at times could be seen laughing and joking on the sideline together during spells, will leave Carlton fans salivating at the possibility of playing football come September for the first time in nearly ten years.
